'Hello Dolly' Theme

This organ has a fine solo ("style D") trumpet as well as the more common muted trumpet. You can hear the solo trumpet at the start and end of this number.

'Dolly' is widow Dolly Levi, a strong-willed matchmaker looking for a match for wealthy but grumpy Horace Vandergelder, but actually intent on marrying him herself. After a series of ups and downs and histrionics, they agree to marry and she promises, at the end of this number and the close of the show that "Dolly'll never go away again".
